Ihubo 138
ElikaDavida.
1 Ngizakudumisa, Thixo, ngenhliziyo yami yonke;
phambi kwabo “nkulunkulu” ngizahlabelela udumo lwakho.
2 Ngizakhothama ngikhangele ethempelini lakho elingcwele
ngidumise ibizo lakho,
ngenxa yothando lwakho lokuthembeka kwakho,
ngoba uphakamise ngaphezu kwezinto zonke
ibizo lakho lelizwi lakho.
3 Ngabiza wena wangiphendula;
wangenza ngaba lesibindi lenhliziyo eqinileyo.
4 Sengathi wonke amakhosi omhlaba angakudumisa, Oh Thixo,
lapho esizwa amazwi omlomo wakho.
5 Sengathi bangahlabela ngezindlela zikaThixo
ngoba inkazimulo kaThixo inkulu.
6 Loba uThixo ephakeme, uyabananza abathobekileyo,
kodwa abazigqajayo ubazi ekhatshana labo.
7 Loba ngihamba phakathi kohlupho
uyayilondoloza impilo yami;
uyaselula isandla sakho ukungivikela elakeni lwezitha zami,
ngesandla sakho sokunene uyangisindisa.
8 UThixo uzagcwalisa icebo lakhe ngami;
uthando lwakho, Oh Thixo, lumi laphakade
ungawutshiyi umsebenzi wezandla zakho.
